I don't mind the Celtic design but what's with the green bead? What is the approx diameter? Is it a twist pen? Might be nice for someone with arthritis.

The kit doesn't look a bad design to me other than it being to fat, if they were to do a slim line version i would have a draw full .. Nice bit of turning and finishing Johnny ..

Keep doing what you are doing, it is your individual style and taste.

Every turner, artisan, crafts person produces what they like with the tools and materials they choose. Show what you have done and if you get a pat on the back from your peers, all well and done. So please keep producing and showing, damn the consequences, but if it sells .... even better. :thumbs:

Y'know. I actually quite like the kit. And it's a well turned pen. Plus, at least the quality of the kit is good too. Nice one:thumbs:
